'The Third Man'

If you want a good old murder-mystery, check out the previously reviewed "The Thin Man." This one's a lot more serious and it sadly only features the great Orson Welles for about 10 minutes, but for 10 minutes, the dude completely captures the lens of the camera and never lets go.

Although there's little similarity on the "asshole" scale between hooking up with your dead friend's girlfriend and selling bad medicine to kids, I did enjoy the fact that the main guy was so pissed that Welles' character was doing the latter and yet he was trying to hook up with the girl that was not only still grieving (the funeral being days before), but still in love with the other guy.

I also enjoyed the 20-minute chase scene through the sewers as a billion police try to track down the portly Welles. Umm, he's the fat guy that's breathing hard, casting a gigantic shadow and slopping through the water. I know, it's tough catching the guy.
